Movie Clip</b><br>
<br>
<b>Summary</b>: Currently WorldKit is no good as a child, height and
width measurements can not be detected correctly. Unless this can be
fixed, WorldKit will not work as a child movie, and in particular, will
not work within MapCast Studio. MapCast Studio has its own parent SWF
and WorldKit would be a child movie clip. However all SWFs created with
Adobe Flash will VARify and thus work.<br>
<br>
<br>
The following post was create on behalf of JustinWills, a lead
developer of MapCast Studio. The original post you may find at: <a

</font>I am using this to test your swf in a swf in swf environment,
your swf becomes a child and the tester is the parent.<br>

>From your web site i retrieved this url to test...<br>
<a
href="http://worldkit.org/res/worldkit.swf?confurl=/worldkit/samplemap/config.xml"
target="_blank">http://worldkit.org/res/worldkit.swf?confurl=/worldkit/samplemap/config.xml</a><br>
<br>
That url fails as the server redirects to....<br>
<a
href="http://worldkit.org/res/worldkit.swf?confurl=/worldkit/samplemap/config.xml"
target="_blank">http://worldkit.org/res/worldkit.swf?confurl=/worldkit/samplemap/config.xml</a><br>
<br>
Then i have to worry about the parameter being relative url, so i try...<br>
<a
href="http://worldkit.org/res/worldkit.swf?confurl=http://worldkit.org/worldkit/samplemap/config.xml"
target="_blank">http://worldkit.org/res/worldkit.swf?confurl=http://worldkit.org/worldkit/samplemap/config.xml</a><br>
<br>
And
then i see something, although not the map, the Width and Height is
also changing on mouse movement which means that i cannot safely resize
your swf once loaded, which is something i would need to do as it is
very small canvas by default.<br>
